James Kent 0 Posted August 27, 2015 Wasn''t it great to see Ricky start and score the winner in the cup game against Rotherham, with Grabban suspended and Hooper possibly off to Sheffield Wednesday he should find himself in the squad on Sunday, can he score again and if so could he yet be our saviour?Read more: https://www.the-newshub.com/football/ricky-van-wolfswinkel-is-this-the-beginning-of-the-revival-for-the-norwich-city-striker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant Holts Moustache 105 Posted August 27, 2015 Just churning out trash articles. I read the first few and they contain no insight what so ever, so beige it was painful. Just did a quick search and looks like he has failed to be a blogger on city for my football writer, failed at making a city fans site and is a freelance writer! My favourite though is he is a Social Media Manager for hire. No thanks James. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katie Borkins 1 Posted August 29, 2015 Insight.....Dutch forward Ricky van Wolfswinkel continues to divide Norwich City fans, but with striking options looking limited the team will certainly need him. At the start of the season, the player would probably have been regarded as fourth choice for a striking berth behind Cameron Jerome, Gary Hooper and Lewis Grabban – but things seem to be changing.Gary Hooper is strongly linked with a move out on loan to the Championship, while Lewis Grabban appears unwilling to play for the club after recent interest from Bournemouth. All of which means, it’s Ricky that is now second choice behind only Jerome.The thing is when you’re a bit out of favour at a club it’s important that you make the most of the opportunities when they come along. The Dutch striker got one of those opportunities in an U21 game that he scored in, the second opportunity came in the Capital One Cup victory against Rotherham United.Van Wolfswinkel had a quiet first half, but came to life in the second half which included scoring the winning goal for his team. Therefore, he is living up to his side of the bargain by making the most the opportunities. I’ve written about this player a fair bit so won’t go into too much detail here – but he certainly has quality.Norwich City’s ongoing hunt for a new striker suggests that the club will have to spend big to land one of their primary targets, obviously it remains to be seen if they feel able to do that. While we would all like to see a new top forward come in, Ricky could be the big winner in all of this. The striker will fancy his chances of being included in the squad for the Southampton game on Sunday, and if he could net another goal there who knows what the future may hold for him!<> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant Holts Moustache 105 Posted August 29, 2015 I see two more anodyne blogs have been added to the board. Same title with interchangeable names. I presume the articles are identical James. A little tip for you. Rather than posting two articles a day maybe save up your thoughts and begin by trying to write just one interesting article a week, spend some time considering the content and doing some research, then if people like what you write they will post it here for others to read.

Herman 9,716 Posted August 29, 2015 That explains it Drunky. Reading this and other forums the fact he doesn''t stick around and discuss his points, or lack thereof, is what is irking some folks. I think NT have started deleting them straight away now.If he is,or wants to be, a freelance journalist then he should write stuff that makes people want to read, maybe something controversial for example, and then people would happily click his links. As it stands they''re nothing outstanding and I''d rather read some of the discusions and rants on here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
